Hi all
I am developing on a beaglebone black and want to include a rotary
knob to Control cursors on my display in user space etc.
The selected quadrature encoder is here :

I need to convert the pulses into a direction and count up or down
accordingly so I plan on using an external low cost micro
controller to count up or down and send the value out onto the bus.
Beaglebone has a hardware quadrature decoder called eQEP.

There is also a gpio quadrature encoder driver in the input subsystem of
the mainline linux kernel. If you don't want to spend time on software,
this may be the way to go.
